    "content": "I represent Samburu County where the issue of insecurity is becoming chronic. The situation of security in Samburu County is worsening every day. Every day we are losing lives. We are not satisfied with the responses we are getting from the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs because we are always told the same thing every time. Those cases have been reported several times, and lives are being lost on a daily basis. I want to report to this House that, a week ago, the Senator, other leaders from Samburu County and I, were ambushed by bandits. Several other people are killed every day. Even as I speak here, some are still lying in the mortuaries waiting to be buried. So, I want to tell the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs that some of the words we are saying here are not satisfactory to us, nor even to the people we are representing. We want to see the security agencies doing their work. Those bandits have terrorised the whole region. We always get responses from the security officers three or four hours after the incident. We are not seeing any actions to prevent the attacks. I want to plead with the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Affairs to ensure that property and the lives of people from Samburu are protected. Right now, the communities have lost hope because of the bandits' attack every day, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this chance."
